Good Mornings Thanks to Breakfast and Coffee
Sleep isn’t something that I get a lot of these days so breakfast and coffee are my jam. I try to wake up before the kids but because Scarlet Reese is teething, it doesn’t happen as frequently right now. I search for all the little teasers of sleep and take full advantage even if it’s only ten or so minutes! This makes me really excited for breakfast and coffee. The kids and I have always been big breakfast eaters but now that it’s fall, it’s become even more of an obsession. If you haven’t checked out my healthy oatmeal casserole, you need to. The recipe is so delicious and really…

A Day In the Life
What does a day in my life look like? I am asked about this A LOT! A day in my life is crazy but a little structured. That sounds so silly hahahahaha! But it’s true! Monday-Friday you can normally find us home unless we make a random trip, I have a buisness meeting, a play date or go to our homeschool Co Op. The weekends we normally go do family activities or Derrek and I go on a date and that’s when I go grocery shopping. I am very much a homebody but I like to get out of the house 2 times a week for several hours. Everyday I…

Healthy Food Ideas (what I like to eat right now)
Hands down, healthy meal and snack ideas, are one of the most asked about topics from my followers. I can see why because it’s something that I am constantly changing in our diets. Before I transitioned to a healthier lifestyle, I was the queen of cheap and fast food items! The dollar menu was my jam and I could have carried less about the nutritional value. Now that I’m older and wiser (ha) I get to share the many things that I’ve learned along the way and what my go-to meal and snacks are right now. A few years ago, when I started my blog, one of the first things…

My Trip to Four Seasons the Biltmore in Santa Barbara
As many of you have seen via my social media, I visited Santa Barbara at the beginning of September. The trip was special to me for many reasons: it was the first time away from my children, I was around inspiring and powerful women, being able to stay at Four Seasons the Biltmore (duh) and being treated like a queen, eating organic amazing food and knowing that I earned this FREE trip because I worked my butt off for three months and my Beautycounter business is proof of it. I decided to join the Beautycounter movement after trying countless “organic” and “natural” products and being unimpressed by their performance and/or…

My “Go-To” Summer Look
tank | shorts | clutch | makeup | shoes As much as I would love to make ya’ll believe that I dress up seven days a week, I think ya’ll could spot a fake from a mile away. I have three small children so when I do make it out of yoga pants THIS is the outfit that I find myself wearing most. Last month, my friend, team member and owner of the Paisley Pearl, Whitney McGee, hosted a Beautycounter event at her boutique. Luckily, I was able to attend and enjoy a night out talking about safer beauty and shopping. In her boutique she has an entire clothing rack for…
